There is only one interaction for the Shovel - ''Dig''. A player can only dig soft ground, with any other surface making the Shovel clank back. Players can either dig up [[Treasure]] or [[Bait]]. [[Treasure]] is most often hidden on [[Islands]], the location of which is written on [[Treasure Maps]] or [[Riddle Maps]]. Once a Player has located the buried treasure, they will have to hit the ground and start digging. If they are at the correct spot, they will hear the distinct sound of hitting an Item underground. Depending on the Voyage or Quest, it takes a different amount of digs to dig up a single Treasure Item. |

The Shovel is an Equipment Item in Sea of Thieves, used to for digging buried items such as Treasure or Bait.
Mechanics
Every Player Pirate acquires a Shovel during their Maiden Voyage, which they can use at any time during their adventures on The Sea of Thieves. The Shovel can be accessed from the Equipment Radial Menu. The Cosmetic design of the Player's Shovel can be switched at Equipment Chests. These designs can be purchased from Equipment Shops and only change the visual appearance of the Shovel.
There is only one interaction for the Shovel - Dig. A player can only dig soft ground, with any other surface making the Shovel clank back. Players can either dig up Treasure or Bait. Treasure is most often hidden on Islands, the location of which is written on Treasure Maps or Riddle Maps. Once a Player has located the buried treasure, they will have to hit the ground and start digging. If they are at the correct spot, they will hear the distinct sound of hitting an Item underground. Depending on the Voyage or Quest, it takes a different amount of digs to dig up a single Treasure Item.
The shovel can also be used to bury your own treasure. By putting the treasure item you want to dig on an island and digging in that spot. This will make the treasure item start sinking into the ground every time you dig. until it has fully disapeared. Where at that point your character will pat the ground twice with the shovel.
Players have a chance to dig up Bait when hitting soft ground with their Shovel. Digging at the Water Shoreline will give players Leeches, digging in Sand will give players Grubs and digging in Grass gives players Earthworms.
Variants
All new players are equipped with the basic Sailor Shovel skin. Other versions are available for purchase from the Equipment Shop, and from various Companies. Note that there are no upgrades, with all differences being purely cosmetic.
